I think the UK numbered ARC (200 copies) will be the scarcest, but this UK S/L will be the scarcest trade edition, especially given that King has apparently signed more than a thousand US trade editions in his signings. The only other item is that I know King has signed some of the "unsigned" Collector's Editions at his signings. Those might be scarcest of all.

By the way, it's been confirmed on TDT.com that this edition IS numbered. No dust jacket, though.

My credit card just got debited by Waterstone's, so I'll be getting two copies--one from Hatchards and one from Watersone's.

One of the pictures on TDT.com shows that this edition seems to be a Waterstone's product--it says that on the limitation page. I wonder how Hatchard's got copies. At least that kind of explains why the Hodder & Stoughton site never posted information on it.
